Why this build ?

To Be honest, i am writing this at 7:45 AM at work, because i want to play smite instead of working =).

Just tried out this build yesterday in a proper siege, and was DESTROYING the enemy because of its onorthodox build.

Why this build ? because why NOT ?!

Im not gonna bore you all with a long *** guide, because face it... if you are on of those who take's this build seriously or not... it is just a ridiculous herc build imo.

How to play

This is not you're conventional OP Sustain type of herc ur used to, so don't play it as such.

while this herc has the opportunity to completely destroy and outbox multiple opponents try to pick fights. Use Odysseus bow to maintain that lane control and build up ur herc.

The Speed herc has in this build is just ridiculous and soooo much fun, so try to play it that way.

always go in a fight with Mitigate Wounds active to keep a little more sustained, but if you are looking at this build wondering tf i have been smoking, you already knew this....you pro herc you!

The Skill Sequence

Rank Divine Strike first to about level 3,4 always try to rank ur ult when u have the chance.

next Mitigate Wounds is a must for this build ! herc is fairly squashy so just do it.

rank everything else.

Simple !
